President Akufo-Addo has commended his Attorney-General and Minister of Justice Godfred Yeboah Dame.
The president says the minister has performed well in the discharge of his duties particularly civil litigation against the state.
He said the minister has managed to contest all litigations brought against the state and in the process saved the country over Ghc10 trillion.
He revealed this when he delivered his last State of the Nation Address on Tuesday, February 27, 2024.
“The Attorney-General has continued, in a very effective manner, the tradition under this administration of contesting every civil litigation against the state, and has avoided the numerous judgment debts that used to be given against the state. The Office, as a result, has saved the country over ten trillion Ghana cedis (GH¢10 trillion).”
Meanwhile, the President has also announced that he will in a few weeks be commissioning Law House, the twelve (12)-storey office building, which will house the offices of the Attorney-General and his Ministry.
“I shall be performing a pleasant duty, in a few weeks, when I commission the Law House, the twelve (12)-storey office building, which will house the offices of the Attorney-General and his Ministry, and, finally, bring an end to the age-old office accommodation problem. I must declare a personal interest in it, as the building was started when I was Attorney General in the Government of President John Agyekum Kufuor, back in 2001.”
